Feeling reminiscent, I picked up am sgi Indigo2 at a fair price...
This is the first sgi I've owned, after various bouts of programming
and managing the older models for large companies.
Anyway, I'm getting the impression that there's no way to log in to
5.3 without a password (single mode is even pwded). So, anybody
know an exploit
Hmm, I think Linux can read and write SGI filesystems (and understand SGI
disklabels) these days - in which case dropping the system drive into a nearby
Linux box and mounting the SGI's root partition should sort you out.
Or you can hook the drive up to a Linux box, locate and edit the necessary
disk block by hand; been there, done that before...
